Hot Tuna Aqua Water Shoes - Blue - UK 3

These shoes are primarily designed for comfort and traction in water and beach environments. While they can be worn for short distances on dry land, they are not intended for extensive walking, hiking, or activities that require significant arch support or robust sole protection.

It is recommended to hand wash these shoes with mild soap and cool water. Machine washing might damage the flexible sole or textile upper, and it can also degrade the Hot Tuna branding.

Yes, the multi-span textile upper and flexible design allow water to drain quickly, preventing them from becoming waterlogged. This also contributes to their quick-drying properties.

The Hot Tuna Aqua Water Shoes are available in standard UK women's shoe sizes. We recommend selecting your usual shoe size. If you are typically between sizes, consider trying the smaller size for a more secure fit in the water.

The flexible TPR sole offers protection against many common beach hazards like hot sand, small stones, and broken shells. However, while the textile upper provides some barrier, extreme caution should be exercised on very sharp or jagged objects as it's not a rigid protective material.

Ensure the sole is clean of any accumulated mud, algae, or debris which can compromise traction. Also, evaluate the surface; no shoe can provide absolute grip on extremely slick surfaces like moss-covered rocks or oily residue.

After use, especially on sandy beaches, thoroughly rinse the shoes with water, shaking them vigorously to dislodge any trapped sand or small pebbles. The textile upper is designed to drain water, but fine particles can sometimes remain.

Odor usually indicates incomplete drying. Always ensure the shoes are completely air-dried after each use before storing them. If odor persists, hand wash with a mild antibacterial soap and allow to dry thoroughly. An odor-absorbing insert can also help.

Some water shoes may experience slight material expansion when wet, which is normal. If the fit becomes consistently too loose and uncomfortable, double-check that you selected the correct size for your feet.
